MEETING FAMILY

At first, i was a bit anxious and believed i wasn't going to enjoy my time in a different country.

GETTING TO EXPLORE GHANA

﻿First thing i got to try , was a coconut. I met a man outside the airport who was cutting coconut shells in half and selling the juice inside the shells.

LEARNING ABOUT THE HISTORY OF GHANA

I got to meet my aunt, cousins, and other relatives. I also got to meet my grandmother who i hadnt seen since i was a toddler. Our grandmother embraced us with tears of joy. I hadn’t seen her sine I was a toddler and all the good memories came rushing at me. I couldn’t help but smile as I gave her a tight hug

We went on trips to beaches, visited the zoo, and even got to visit the Flagstaff House. The Flagstaff House is the presidential palace of Ghana and is ranked the 10th most beautiful palace in the world. It was nice to see the different statues and the history they represented
